By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International Next Wednesday Feb. 11 marks the beginning of one of the least-understood seasons of the Christian year. It is called Lent, a name derived from an old Anglo Saxton word for springtime. It is easy to say who ob serves Lent, and when, and how. The question that causes confusion, even in churches that place great emphasis on Lent, is why. To take up the easy ones first, Lent is observed by all liturgical churches, including the Roman Catholic, Luther an, Episcopal and Eastern Or thodox communions. These churches follow an ancient calendar of worship which di vides the year into six great seasons - Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter and Trinity. The idea is that this calendar provides an annual rhythm for worship, so that each major aspect of the Christian faith has its own ap pointed season for special emphasis. See Values In Lent Many Protestant bodies which formerly ignored the liturgical calendar have, be gun in recent years to see val ues in it. One result of this so-called liturgical revival is that Lent is now being ob served in a number of Pres byterian, Methodist and oth er Protestant churches. The date of Lent varies from year to year, because it is tied to the date of Easter. Specifically, Lent is a period of 40 weekdays and six Sun days preceding Easter. This period was fixed by Pope Fe lix II in 487 A.D., but his de cree merely formalized a cus tom that was widespread in the Christian church as early as 200 A.D. The Eastern Orthodox churches reckon the date of Easter by a method different from that used in Western churches. Hence their ob servance of Lent begins on a different date (March 16) this year. x Fast Rules Vary Roman Catholics are en joined to fast on all week days during Lent by foregoing meat at two of the three meals. In Eastern Orthodox churches, rules . for fasting vary from one archdiocese to another. In some cases they prohibit meat or fish at any of the three meals, but those who are not physically able to stand this regime may con fine their fasting to the first and last weeks of Lent. Episcopal 'and Lutheran churches leave it up to the in dividual's conscience to de termine how he will observe Lent. But both encourage sys tematic act of self-denial. As the Episcopal book of common prayer puts it, each person should practice "such a mea sure of abstinence" from food or 1 other worldly pleasures as he finds necessary to disci pline his appetites and "bring the body into subjection" to the spirit. In addition to fasting, Lent is observed with "extraordi nary acts of devotion." For Catholics, this may mean more frequent attendance at mass. For Protestants, it is likely to mean Wednesday night worship services, pray er groups, and devotional reading. Lent A Reminder j What is the purpose of: Lent? In all of the Lenten literature that has been writ-i ten by Catholic and Protestant i scholars, two themes stand ' out: 1. Lent is an annual re-: minder to Christians that Jesus did not promise his fol lowers ease, comfort or suc cess in this life. On the con trary, he said that "if any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me." Many theologians feel that Lent's emphasis on sacrifice and self denial is especially needed by modern Christians, who live in a world that places su preme importance on the pur suit of happiness. 2. As a "penitential sea son," Lent stresses the Chris tian teaching that all men are sinners and in need of God's mercy. This doctrine is almost as uncongenial to the modern mind as the ideal of self-denial. But the liturgical church es believe that no man can really comprehend the joy of Easter, with its message of re demption, until he has faced the fact of his own sinfulness.
